MIDDLETOWN, OH (August 18, 2020) — To cap off their month-long Stuff the Bus campaign, MidUSA Credit Union announced today that it has awarded a $500 Visa™ gift card to one of its members. In keeping with its mission to help strengthen the community, MidUSA’s campaign was designed to support local schools by providing needed school supplies and materials through a partnership with Crayons to Classrooms. Part of MidUSA Credit Union’s mission is to lead in the community and actively participate where staff live, work, and shop. Communities served by MidUSA include Middletown, Trenton, Monroe, Springboro, Kettering and Vandalia.
Barbara March, a MidUSA member who frequents the Kettering MidUSA location, was randomly selected as the winner from all those who made donations. As she does not have any children who are currently in school, Barbara’s contributions and donations truly came from the heart knowing the need exists. She selected Dayton Christian Schools to receive the additional $500 donation from MidUSA. Barbara noted, “I’ve always felt it important to volunteer and give financially to charities or organizations that are important to me personally, whether that be locally or globally. This year I felt it important to focus on my own local community. The recent Stuff The Bus Campaign collection offered through MIDUSA, allowed me to focus on tangible items that can be used by students in local schools. I’m also pleased to know that the money being donated to the school of my choice will assist the students during these difficult times”.
Through its Stuff the Bus campaign, in conjunction with Dayton’s ABC22/FOX45 TV stations, MidUSA was able to generate nearly 1,200 supply items that will be donated to area schools for staff and student use. The generosity of MidUSA members, the hard work of staff, and the commitment of the organization to community needs, combined to propel the program to success.

“As students prepare for a return to a school that will be unique and different to say the least, this is a challenging time for many families. Our team responded with a great effort to show our support for teachers, our local schools, and to reach out and help local students,” shared Lisa Parks, MidUSA’s marketing manager.

I am proud of our team, thankful to our members, and pleased our efforts will make the return to school a little brighter this year.”
